What pisses me off is that NOT ONE review mentioned any issues with the Vaio Z's build quality. Guess that's what happens when a reviewer uses it for an hour or two, rushes the review out the door and moves on to the next one...

Very few sites do actual long-term reviews of consumer devices - and I wish they did. How can you really know if a phone/laptop/monitor/etc works well if you only use it a couple of times for a review? I used to enjoy reviews where the reviewer would publish his/her initial impressions then update the review at later dates (I.E.: posting back one month later with more opinions and details on wear, or posting back if/when there is any problem with the unit). Oh well I guess.
